At night, the Su family sisters and brothers lay on the kang.

"Big brother, do you want to study? Eldest sister, let's send you to private school next year. ”

"Big sister, I don't want to go." Su Chenrui replied sullenly.

Su Rui didn't understand the eldest brother's thoughts, just because she didn't want to add a burden to the family.

"The eldest sister will sell the ginseng tomorrow, and there will be money for you to study."

"Eldest brother, eldest sister doesn't ask you to study to gain fame, I just hope that you will be a sensible person in the future. You read the book and come back to teach your sisters to read. ”

Su Rui spoke earnestly and reasoned with Su Chenrui.

"I'll read it well."

"Well, let's sleep"

Early the next morning, I had dinner.

Su Rui took Su Ying and Su Chenrui and set off to the county.

On the way, I met Su Changying driving an ox cart, "Rui girl, where are you going so early?" ”

"Uncle Chang Ying, let's go to the county."

"Come, come up. Uncle also went to the county. ”

Su Changying stopped the ox cart and waited for the Su family sisters and brothers to climb onto the ox cart.

"Uncle Chang Ying, what are you doing in the county?"

"The salt at home is gone, go buy salt." Su Changying drove the ox cart and walked forward slowly.

arrived at the door of the county grocery store, "Rui girl, come over when you finish your business, I'm waiting for you here." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Chang Ying, we will come back soon" Su Rui pulled her younger siblings and walked towards the pharmacy.

"Grandpa, how much is the ginseng?" Su Rui looked at Dr. Sun innocently.

Doctor Sun looked up and down at Su Rui, and the three of them were not dressed well, but they were in good spirits, thinking that it was not a family that lacked food.

"Now there are only thirty years, fifty years, and eighty years, sixty taels for thirty years, one hundred and twenty taels for fifty years, and two hundred and sixty taels for eighty years." ”

"You mean the older you get, the higher the price"

Su Rui said and took out the wild ginseng wrapped in the back basket. "And how much do you think it's worth?"

"This is wild ginseng, it's been at least a hundred years, I can give you three hundred and fifty taels" Doctor Sun touched his beard and squinted.

"Grandpa, you're not kind. Eighty years is more than twice as much as fifty years, and only ninety taels more in a hundred years? Su Rui took the wild ginseng and wrapped it, and was about to go out.

"Four hundred taels no, five hundred taels" Doctor Sun hurriedly stopped Su Rui, who was leaving.

"Seven hundred taels"

"No, no, seven hundred taels is too much. I'll give you a maximum of six hundred taels, this price is in the entire county, and only our Rejuvenation Hall can afford it! ”

"Deal" Su Rui smiled.

The last time she came, Su Rui found that only the pharmacy of Huichun Hall was the largest in the entire Pingyang County, and the evaluation was good.

"Wait for me to get you a silver ticket"

"Grandpa, I want three hundred taels of silver tickets, two hundred taels of gold, the remaining one hundred taels, fifty taels of silver ingots, and fifty taels of broken silver." Su Rui said calmly.

Doctor Sun looked at him in astonishment, and said in his heart, "This girl will definitely do great things in the future." I gave an extra fifty taels today, and it's always good to cultivate a good karma."

"These are three hundred taels of silver, two hundred taels of gold, one tael, twenty in all, fifty taels of silver ingots, one five taels, ten in all, and the remaining fifty taels of silver in this purse." Dr. Su handed over the money to Su Rui, picked up the wild ginseng and observed it carefully, the more he looked at it, the better.

"Doctor Sun, there is still wild ginseng at home, do you still accept it?"

Su Rui saw that Mrs. Sun was in good shape, and she did not deduct silver taels, although the price was very depressed in front, but she had experienced modern profiteers, and it was good in comparison, after all, people did not press the payment for the goods.

"And? Is it all that big? Dr. Sun was surprised, did she find the wild ginseng nest?

"Pretty much, but it's going to take a while." Su Rui replied without raising her head, took out a few taels of silver, and carefully wrapped the rest and put them under the back basket, in fact, she put them into the space casually.

"Yes, as long as there is one, I will send it over, and I will definitely give you a fair price. The old man's surname is Sun, and when he came to look for me, he said that he was looking for me. ”

"Okay, then let's go, goodbye Grandpa Sun."

"Eldest sister, we have money." Su Chenrui asked excitedly.

"Yes, you will be able to go to a private school next year. Now you can rest easy..."

Su Chenrui touched his nose and smiled embarrassedly.

"Later, let's go to the cloth village to buy some cloth first, and buy some needlework and thread."

"Well, I'll learn to make clothes for my eldest sister in the future," Su Ying smiled.

"Two young ladies, what does Childe need?" Warm welcome from the guys.

"How are the prices calculated?" Su Rui and Su Wan looked around.

"Coarse cloth costs 600 wen for a horse, and a horse of muslin cloth costs a penny."

"Take out the stone blue muslin, indigo, lotus, snow blue and apricot, let's see" Su Rui chose the fabric of the sisters and brothers at this time.

"Eldest sister, I think the big red is so beautiful, more gorgeous than the dress that Sister Yuzhi of the eldest aunt's family wore before she got married."

Su Ying looked at the red fabric with envy in her eyes, Su Ying knew that they were still in the filial piety period and couldn't wear red, but it didn't prevent her from liking it.

"Each of these models needs a horse, the big red one also needs a horse, and thirty catties of cotton, a set of threads and needles of various colors."

Su Ying turned her head violently and looked at the eldest sister, the joy in her eyes was not fake.

Su Rui couldn't bear to see the little girl's pitiful appearance, since she was her Su Rui's sister, then she would have what others had!

"My father's filial piety has not passed, so I can't wear it. But you can do it first, and you can wear it when the filial piety period expires next year. ”

"The blue and purple muslin cloth was torn six feet a piece, four pieces each. A gray-blue coarse cloth is also needed.

Su Ying saw that the eldest sister was still ready to ask for it, and hurriedly pulled, "The eldest sister bought too much..."

Although she got a lot of money from selling ginseng today, the little girl was still reluctant to spend so much.

Su Rui touched the little girl's soft hair comfortingly, "Buy more today, we won't come out a year ago." Besides, Uncle Chang Ying drove the ox cart today, so you can put it down..."

Su Rui was afraid that Uncle Chang Ying would be in a hurry, so she discussed with the store and delivered the purchased fabric to the door of the grocery store.

Su Chenrui followed.

Su Rui passed by the bookstore, and suddenly thought that her eldest brother was going to study next year, so she hurriedly bought a few enlightenment books, and paper, ink, pen and inkstone.

Ancient books are really expensive, a kindergarten Qionglin with only a few pages, and a thousand-character text costs one or two silver. No wonder they all say that it is difficult for poor children to deal with talents, not because of poor ability, but because they can't afford to buy books.

Su Rui ran to the bun shop non-stop and bought twenty large meat buns. The ancient buns were all solid meat filling, and they were very solid.

The direct fiasco of modern times ...

When he arrived at the door of the grocery store, Uncle Chang Ying was looking at the stacked cloth on the ox cart in amazement.

"Rui girl, you bought too much..."

"Uncle Chang Ying, there are not many, our sister and brother's clothes have to be made, Chen Rui will be eight years old after the New Year, and he will sleep by himself, and he will also make futons." Su Rui settled accounts for Uncle Chang Ying.

Su Changying thought about it.

Su Rui handed the bought meat buns to Su Changhai for three, and the second sister and eldest brother ate one by one.

"This, take it back and give it to your younger siblings to eat." Su Changhai was embarrassed to eat

"Uncle Chang Hai, don't be polite, it will take two hours to go back, eat something to cushion your stomach. Besides, I brought it to my younger siblings. ”

After Su Rui finished speaking, she didn't wait for Su Changhai to refuse again, turned around and entered the grocery store.

Su Changhai ate a bun, the delicious one can bite off his tongue, and the remaining two are reluctant to eat, and he can give the children a little taste when he takes it home.

At home, Su Qiao was holding the well-behaved Xiaoliu in her arms, and Su Wan was sitting next to her, looking out of the door expectantly...
